Guest guest Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 Hello all, My dd was one of eight children from her school asked to be in a county wide chorus group. She brought the words and music home today to learn the songs. While she was practicing the words to this one song it had such deep meaning and I wanted to share the words with all of you: Child of the Universe words and music by Craig Cassils The sun is only a star around that star we spin. But there are many other stars: where do we fit in? I am only a grain of sand tossed by water and wind But there are many grains of sand: where do I fit in? Chorus: Child of the universe, Let your spirit fly. You are the special one, and here's the reason why, You're a child of the universe, so climb your mountains high. You are the chosen one to try and touch the sky. Tell me, what can I aim for in a world that's quickly changing? Tell me what my purpose is: where do I fit in? Shall I follow a dream? Or are dreams just made for children? Well, all of us are children now. That's where I fit in. Repeat chorus We are approaching the two year anniversary of our dd finally getting dirty and going outside to play like other kids her age (with out me). It just happened to be Mother's Day. The words to this song made me just melt when I heard her singing it. Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
